DHAKA, Oct 9, 2019 (BSS) – The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) took several
initiatives to make the National Cricket League (NCL) competitive one as the
tournament long dubbed as picnic league.
The NCL will kick off on October 10 throughout the country in four
different venues.
A total of eight teams will participate in the event and the games will be
played under two tiers.
The BCB has raised the bar of fitness test, making 11 points mandatory in
beep test in lieu of 9. Several senior players failed to attain the mandatory
points in the beep test but they are allowed to play until unless they hit
the minimum requirement.
